Italian Talmudist and writer on religious ethics; born at Asti, Piedmont; flourished in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. His only known work is "Ḳiẓẓur Reshit Ḥokmah" (Venice, 1600; Cracow, 1667; Amsterdam, 1725; Zolkiev, 1806), an abridgment of the "Reshit Ḥokmah" of Elijah de Vidas. It is intended to teach an ascetic and ethical life.
